i forgot something !

Since we reimplemented the fuzzy compares using Hilbert-Schmidt norm, which 
uses sum(), the compilation time of sum() suddenly matters more! Also, all 
well considered, it seems to me that for certain users sum() could be a very 
common operation.

However, it might well be that merging sum back in redux does not increase 
compilation time significantly -- here there is no question of constructing 
nested xprs as with dot and Product.

Cheers,

Benoit
